Comment on Queer Conception: The DIY Nitty Gritty by Alicia https://laborfruits.com/2013/11/05/queer-conception-the-diy-nitty-gritty/comment-page-1/#comment-12
Tue, 07 Nov 2017 14:50:07 +0000http://laborfruits.wordpress.com/?p=44#comment-12Glad to see this here! We did a very similar method, but used the softcup w/o the medical syringe. Just placed the sperm into the cup and carefully put it in (if you’re familiar with using softcups while menstruating, then you know the ways to be careful as to not spill). One other note I want to emphasize: it can take awhile to find a donor. We had somebody in mind for years, and when we finally asked him, he said no. We ended up asking several more friends before finding the right match.

Fri, 28 Feb 2014 15:49:26 +0000http://laborfruits.wordpress.com/?p=59#comment-5[…] Labor is different for every woman. Some people have painless births, some people want medication at the first sign of a contraction. Some people experience great pleasure during labor. What is true for nearly every woman is that as vivid as childbirth is in the moment, you start forgetting what it was really like very quickly after birth. Try to remember the feeling of a contraction a few days or weeks afterwards and you’ll realize that your memory has become quite fuzzy. Wait a few more months and you might not have any recollection at all of this experience that was so all-consuming while it was happening. These are a few of my thoughts on what labor felt like for me, mostly written down a few weeks postpartum. Ready my full birth story here. […]

Wed, 12 Feb 2014 05:03:26 +0000http://laborfruits.wordpress.com/?p=7#comment-2[…] Nurses started stirring in the room around 10:30 or 11, and Claire walked back into the room! She sat on the bed next to my paralyzed legs and said 1. She was going to check me. 2. If I was fully dilated and effaced, I would start pushing. 3. If I wasn’t fully dilated and effaced, we would need to talk about a c-section. I said OK, check me. On the next contraction, she slid her hand in and bumped into my baby’s head, and she said with a smile, “Whoa, we’ve got a major conehead coming!” He was already at +1 (in the birth canal) so she said, “OK, let’s push!” Click here to read the rest of my birth story.
